Isn't it? Donald Trump lost the election, and he wasn't booted off Twitter until after he lost. He was free to spew his nonsense, and it contributed to his downfall. I'd say that's another win for free speech.

You've just used two prime examples of so-called "cancel culture" in action as a great thing and examples of free speech, but then you go on about how you hate cancel culture.
Is this like when they polled people and they loved the Affordable Care Act but hated Obamacare?
